would it make my export snare sound any better if i bought new Snares for the bottom? does it even make a difference what kind of snare you put on the bottom, or are all of them pretty much the same??

thanks for the help.

Replace the snares once they break. If you go with a high end snare wire like Puresound, you will notice a difference, but the change may or may not be noticeble when you're playing a regular gig. In a sensitive situation like in the studio I think it is definitely noticeable.
I usually buy Pearl snare wires when I can though b/c of the reasonable price and the fact that they are more durable and "crisper" sounding than the ultra cheap no-name wires that a lot of stores carry. Tama Starclassic are some great moderately priced wires too. So try some Puresounds if u have the $, but the Pearl ones are about $10 and they're great.
